Chant from The Cathedral Singers

SUBLIME CHANT
The Cathdral Singers
Richard Proulx, Conductor
Recorded in Saint Wenceslaus Church, Chicago, Sublime Chant provides examples from three chant traditions: Gregorian, Ambrosian and Gallican. The contemplative sound of pure melody moving horizontally with a free rhythmic structure and sung in an ambient space can reach the very core of one's being. As it has been for many centuries, chant is sung prayer, ageless and quietly powerful.

MORE SUBLIME CHANT
The Cathedral Singers
Richard Proulx, Conductor
This beautiful recording includes Gregorian, Ambrosian, Mozarabic and Sarum chants, many being recorded for the first time. Chants for Advent, Christmas, Lent and Easter are included, as are two mass settings and the complete Office of Compline, sung in English.
The chants are realized in proportional, modal, and equalist rhythms, employing organum, drones, tone clusters and ornamentation. The use of recorders, handbells and small percussion combined with the enchanting voices of The Cathedral Singers and the warm acoustics of Chicago's Columbus Hospital Chapel make this recording a "must-have" for chant lovers.
